Julia Ullman (Summer ’17, PCJE ’18-’19) of Pepper Pike was recently accepted into the Weitzman-JDC Fellowship in Global Jewish Leadership, a graduate program initiative between the Joint Distribution Committee and Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion. Ullman, 24, is a member of Temple Emanu El in Orange. The two-year program offers students from North America and around the world a combination of tailored coursework and hands-on field experience, both in North America and abroad. Students spend their first year at HUC-JIR’s Jerusalem campus, where they learn about the importance of global Jewish responsibility through the history and present of JDC’s work. In their second year, students return stateside to learn how to make global Jewish responsibility a key part of their Jewish professional life as they continue their studies.
